There is a distinct, panic-inducing feeling that occurs when you realize your opponent is playing a hyper-fast Cycle or Bridge Spam deck.
Fast decks prey entirely on players who panic, over-defend, and leak elixir.
Breaking Their Momentum
If you use a Cannon to defend their Hog Rider, they will play four 1-elixir cards to cycle back to a second Hog Rider before your Cannon is back in your hand.
They are forced to spend their cheap cycle spells (like Fireball or Log) specifically to destroy your building, severely hindering their ability to cycle quickly.
Do not spend 4 elixir to prevent 200 damage.Your building is your lifeline.Maximize the walking distance so both Princess towers can shoot them.
The Double Elixir Deathball
Your sole objective during single elixir is simply survival; keep your towers above 50% health and do not allow them to build a massive lead.
Once your tank crosses the river supported by heavy splash units, their cheap 1-elixir skeletons and ice spirits will be utterly useless, and their defenses will shatter under the weight of the deathball.

Staying Zen
Take the hits, manage your economy, and set up your defensive wall.
Patience always defeats panic.
